Referred to the House Committee on Education and Workforce.
This resolution is a non-binding House statement that formally recognizes SkillsUSA's 60th anniversary and encourages support for its mission. It does not create law, change federal programs, or require the Senate or the President to act. It records the House's official view and urges students, educators, employers, and others to support SkillsUSA's work in career and technical education.
Simple resolutions are adopted by only one chamber of Congress and do not become law or require the President's signature. This measure expresses the House's sentiments but has no legal force beyond that chamber's action.
This House resolution recognizes the 60th anniversary of SkillsUSA, a national career and technical education (CTE) organization.
It expresses support for recognizing SkillsUSA’s contributions, encourages stakeholders to back its mission, and highlights SkillsUSA’s role in expanding access to CTE and workforce development.
Simple House resolutions are expressions of the House, not statutes; they do not become law regardless of support.
